The Alocasia Cucullata, affectionately known as Buddha’s Palm, is a striking tropical plant with a sculptural quality that makes it a favourite among collectors and designers alike. What sets this variety apart is its thick, swollen trunks — reminiscent of bonsai trees — which support a canopy of glossy, heart-shaped leaves that gently sway with the air.

Size
Supplied in a 12cm nursery pot, approx. 40cm tall on arrival. It’s a compact plant with big impact — easy to style on shelves, sideboards, or desktops.

Native Habitat and Growth Patterns
In the wild, Alocasia cucullata grows in the humid, shaded understories of Southeast Asian forests. It clings to life in warm, moist environments, forming a thickened base to store water during dry spells — which is where those unusual trunks come from. The leaf stems rise neatly from the base, creating a natural “fountain” effect that’s both elegant and practical in the jungle and at home.

Styling at Home
Those bonsai-like trunks are begging to be shown off. Try placing your Alocasia Cucullata in a low ceramic bowl or wide planter where its chunky base can take centre stage. It looks fantastic in both modern and traditional interiors — from minimalist apartments to heritage townhouses. It’s especially beautiful when paired with soft-leaved trailing plants or other sculptural forms like Ficus or Dracaena.

Care Requirements
Surprisingly easy-going for an Alocasia:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best. A few hours of morning sun is fine, but avoid harsh afternoon rays.

  • Water: Let the top layer of soil dry out slightly between waterings. Never let it sit in water.

  • Humidity: Loves a humid spot — perfect for bathrooms or kitchens, or mist regularly.

  • Feeding: Feed once a month during the growing season with our Organic Tropical Plant Food to support healthy leaves and trunk development.

Why Choose This Plant
The Alocasia Cucullata brings a sense of peace and order to your plant collection. Its thick base and elegant form feel timeless — like a living sculpture that rewards quiet observation. Whether you’re a bonsai lover or simply after something that feels grounded and meditative, this is a perfect choice.

Interesting Facts

  • In its native Thailand, this plant is often grown around Buddhist temples, where it’s said to bring good luck and calm.

  • The swollen “trunks” act as water reservoirs — an adaptation that makes it more resilient than fussier Alocasias.

Does not last long.
Loved the product but disappointed with the longevity. I've purchased 2 units and they both stopped working after about 4 months. We only use in our morning coffee for a few seconds....to mix in cream. I guess for this price, you just keep buying replacements. Seems highly wasteful though. EDIT: Service team reached out to learn more about my issues and is replacing the units that failed. It means a lot to have a good service team that takes care of customers.

Powerful mixer, and the company stands behind the product
I've had a few of these mixers from other companies and they broke quickly and then couldn't even get a response when contacting the company. However, when I had an issue with this one Typhur responded immediately and totally resolved the issue. Good to know that the company stands by their products. This particular unit is more powerful than the other ones I've owned and really works well through thick mixes, with little stalling. The one-button operation, from the top, is naturally suited to the task. Another one I owned had the speed buttons on the side and it was pretty awkward when you're in the middle of mixing something. Since I use Eneloop Pro rechargeable batteries I don't have to worry about setting it up near a socket to plug in a USB cable. My counter top is crowded enough as it is.

It was good until it wasn't. :(
Purchased this in February. It worked great while it worked. It started stopping periodically as I would use it around the first of April. I thought it could be the batteries so I changed the batteries. It is still stopping as I use it. It will spin for a second or two then stop. I have to press the button several times to get it to start again only for it to run a few seconds at a time.

10/10 product. Best on the market.
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
This thing is bomb. I can confirm that it is legit and cooks way more effectively than a lot of of the other options, especially for oven air fryers, but even against basket air fryers we originally got a ninja dual basket, vertical stacked air fryer and had to return it because of a weird whining noise. I’m so glad we did because this thing has been killer. The thermometer option for reverse searing stakes makes it so easy to get it to the exact temperature and then sear it for 90 seconds on each side. even in general regular air frying stuff is great in here. Pretty easy to clean everything fits in the dishwasher, but also it’s easy to clean with a sponge. It’s pretty big and can fit a lot of things and the best part is The front end is very user-friendly. My fiancé had a hard time figuring out working the ninja, she found this to be much more intuitive to work with
